Frog Fishing - Everything You Need To Know!

CRAZY topwater strikes on frogs are incredible! Once you've had a bass erupt through heavy cover, you'll never forget it! In the past these explosions were often met with disappointment when the bass didn't hook up. But with today's advances in equipment, frog design, and hook shapes, you can have an excellent catch rate, even in heavy cover!

With all the frog designs on the market its hard to understand what they're all for, let alone which ones are worth the time and effort! In today's video Tim separates frogs into 5 categories, teaches what each category is for, and shows his favorite baits for each scenario. Frog fishing doesn't have to be difficult, and you can start having success right away.

Below you'll find links to all of Tim's favorite frogs. We've separated them by category and included favorite colors for each model. We've also included our favorite frog combos, as well as some budget-friendly options. All the links go directly to Tackle Warehouse where you can see detailed photos and descriptions of each item.

I love that he talks about organizing his frogs and displays that box of madness.

It never ceases to amaze me how much knowledge the two of you combined have when it comes to bass fishing. Even the legends of fishing like Martin, Dance etc... have to be amazed at the level of knowledge and love for fishing you guys have and the fact you guys enjoy teaching so much. Its almost as if the torch has been past from those guys to the two of you. And its because of you guys and others like you, that Bass fishing will continue to grow. Thanks so much for everything you guys along with your families do to help us become better Im sure your families dont get enough credit for what they do behind the scenes. But just know we appreciate what they do as much as we appreciate what yall do.

I was watching your guys old frog videos at 2am last night and waking up to this 40 min video is the bees knees

[GaryLParrish]

This is why Tactical Bassin is my FAVORITE, go-to channel to learn from. Another GREAT video, especially for someone who LOVES to frog fish like me! Thank you, Tim!

[fiberglasscowboy]

Love the old frog video! Super happy to see another frog video.

[dennisederer]

Extremely thorough seminar on frog fishing.
Looking forward to using frogs in a successful manner.
The follow up cast technique was my big take away.
Thank you.

[bobbymason]

Good in depth review of frogs out there and a general idea of where and when to use them

[ryanrodriguez]

Poppin frogs do great around me! I’ve got bites on poppin frogs than any other form of bait including worms, rattle traps and jerk baits basically any other form of bait for bass fishing! Especially the Booyah popping frog and river2sea popping frogs! Get good bass bites and snakehead bites also! Both durable brands caught countless snakeheads and decent bass on them and they hold up!

[vuexiong]

I love how you saw and heard the blow up and your instincts grabbed the rod! Awesome. Lol thanks for the tips as always!

[ryanlightfoot]

Headed from my home in Fort Worth to Lake Falcon!! Super stoked to say the least! Still had to watch TB video while I’m driving (well, I’m riding with my buddy)…y’all are the best!

[brandonize]

One of my favorite topics! I love the frog, being from the south it’s always a good choice to have to throw in the nasty stuff or in open water! 🤔

[michaelteaby]

Yeah baby!! I wait all year for this. My winter is Filled of dreams of summer and a good frog bite!🤘🙌🏻😎

[alvinvillanueva]

He got 15 minutes into the video before he got tempted. That's impressive. You guys are awesome thanks for the info!

[MrKillwaukee]

So glad I randomly came across your videos a few weeks ago. You got me back into fishing again!

[keithhines]

I love how much you love frog fishing you couldn't even concentrate due to all the blow ups😂😂. Great video like always and very informative. You give great content and I truly appreciate you and Matt. I would love to see a video on hooksetting with hollow body frogs if you haven't already done that. Thanks again!

[Tylerler]

I use your website all the time when I forget something that I saw and wanted to try out. Usually means that I don't know what hook for the specific soft plastic etc. Helps a lot as google picks up the text there versus in youtube descriptions sometimes. Super helpful!

[donaldtruster]

Love frog fishing, getting hot here in Southwest Missouri Ozarks, vegetation is growing strong! Been fishing from s kayak this year, whole different hook set situation!

[riverrightoutdoors]

We all need a little more frog fishing. nice episode.

[shawnanderson]

Love the I am second bracelet. Good information on frog fishing too.

[dartdodge]

Great video. As an Upper Mississippi River rat myself, I'll confirm that your color guide is spot on.
